The FAW J6P 8x4 500HP Dump Truck is designed for users who need a higher level of power and chassis durability. With a strong 500hp rating, this model offers faster response, easier uphill performance, and stable acceleration under full load. The J6P platform is well known for its reinforced frame, long-lasting powertrain, and dependable engineering backed by the FAW brand’s strong manufacturing heritage.
While the 500hp version stands at the top of the lineup, the FAW J6P series can also be equipped with a wide range of horsepower levels depending on the user’s preferred balance of power and fuel demand.

Main Advantages of the FAW J6P 8x4 500HP Dump Truck
Strong FAW Engineering Foundation
FAW has been one of China’s most recognized heavy-duty truck manufacturers for decades. Its J6P series reflects years of refinement in chassis design, engine integration, and long-term durability planning. The 500hp model elevates performance while preserving the balanced structure that the J6P line is known for.
High-Efficiency 500HP Power Output
The 500hp configuration brings stronger torque delivery, allowing the driver to maintain steady performance even under demanding load conditions. Power distribution feels smooth, and the engine delivers consistent strength across different terrains. Customers requiring moderate horsepower levels can also choose alternative FAW-configured options.
Reliable 8x4 Layout (6x4 Optional)
The 8x4 drive system provides excellent stability when transporting heavy materials. It distributes weight across multiple axles, offering enhanced traction and predictable steering control. For applications where a compact body is preferred, FAW also offers the J6P in a 6x4 layout, which improves maneuverability in tighter environments.
